Came back from work on the A20 just after 5. The back of the queue was at the Capel exit and lorries were trying to drive back down the entrance slip road. Then we caught the back of another queue at Farthingloe Farm caused by the extra traffic hitting roadworks on Folkestone Road by Malvern Road.

brian makes the point that no police were in attendance - fair enough with kent police who are busy guarding mosques at present but the port police are responsible for a section of this road.
